Looking for one magic cook book? Simply Healthy seems to have it all. Almost every one of the recipes has turned out to be a winner. Quick prep time too. My wife and I love this book! Watch out for the pasta... its delicious!

This cookbook is full of delicious, unusual, and healthy food. The recipies do require some knowledge of cooking and a restocking of your shelves. I tend to plan the meals for a week, making out the grocery list from the list of ingredients for each meal. Wear your sun glasses for this trip to the grocery store, your basket will be glowing with orange, yellow, red and green items. Stick with using this book exclusively for a month and you will never think the same about food. I found that cooking and eating delicious food to be the best instruction in what constitutes a healthy diet.

I originally checked this cookbook out at the library, and after trying a few of the recipes, decided I needed to have it. I was delighted to find a "slightly used" copy at a very reasonable cost. The book was, as promised, like new. I've had a chance to try still more recipes and all have been good. And the best thing is, these recipes are helping me improve our eating habits. Doctor has said my husband and I need to cut down on bad fats and sugars. This cookbook is helping us do that in a not-deprived feeling way!

My fiancee and I have cooked many recipes from this book. The book offers great variety with recipes inspired by Southwest cooking, Mexican dishes, Chinesse stir fry, Morrocan, Indian and Italian cooking. They all taste superb and are not that hard to prepare (once you stock your spice rack).
